Understanding organisational culture can enable managers to generate greater business efficiency and improved company performance. To achieve this, three elements must be in harmony and aligned: the corporate strategy, organisational culture and employee behaviour.

When formulating a corporate strategy the nature of the organisation’s culture and employee behaviour both need to be considered to determine how receptive they are to change. As people respond to change in different ways it is necessary to build a receptive environment in order to take employees along ‘on the journey of change’. Changing an organisations culture presents a significant challenge, as culture is often resistant to change and continually in flux. In order to realise a corporate strategy the gap between strategic intent and practice must be minimized by working towards the alignment of culture and behaviour in support of the strategy.

We draw upon numerous experiences of formulating and implementing successful organisational culture change through adopting an approach that aligns an organisation’s behaviours with the needs of their employees and customers.

Culture Doctors also facilitate creative workshops and advanced training to help management understand the importance of the culturally sensitive issues that affect their ability to implement organisational behaviour and culture change.
